Were doing this by spreading our metabolism-first success framework to a worldwide audience. Its a flexible, fun lifestyle thats 100% focused on consistently getting you the results that matter: looking your best, feeling your best and performing your best. In the shortest time possible. And in a way that sticks. \nIt puts YOU back in control. It helps YOU understand how your body and metabolism works. It empowers YOU to fix your own problems. And because it alleviates the frustration and confusion so many of us experience when trying to fix our health, it makes you want to tell the world about it. \nOur vision is to do this by growing into a billion-dollar multi-channel brand thats distributed via online, mobile and physical retail. For 8 years, weve been painstakingly building the products, services, framework, team and culture to make this happen. And now were scaling into a much larger stage. \nWeve built a full ecosystem of products that allow someone to live a metabolism-first lifestyle. This includes exercise and nutrition programs, nutraceuticals, functional foods, memberships and coaching programs. Were launching a mobile app next year, then will push into offline retail, extend into home-delivered meals and more. But ONE thing at a time, just like weve done for 8 years. \nOur next major step is rolling out our new Metabolic Living brand and centralized e-commerce website at www.metabolicliving.com, scheduled to be live in first half of 2020. We will consolidate into this centralized website our various product-branded microsites like at www.metabolicrenewal.com. \nSo why is a metabolism-first lifestyle needed? Because there are record amounts of sick, overweight, tired and depressed people piling up around the world. Were over-worked, over-stressed, over-fed and full of toxins. And were deprived of the sleep, nutrition, movement and relaxation we need to thrive. \nUnfortunately, the typical solution of extreme dieting and exercise traps people into a 1-step-forward, 2-steps back vicious cycle that makes them worse off. They bounce from one latest flavor-of-the-month program to the next, never making progress trapped in a downward spiral of increasing desperation. \nAnd philosophies like Paleo or Vegan, while extremely healthy for some, create a rigid us-vs-them tribal mentality thats self-limiting. Neither of those philosophies work for all people all the time or even the same person all the time. People differ. Bodies change. If thats not respected, things will backfire. \nThe answer? Instead of trying to FIND the perfect program, people need to CREATE their own one that respects how YOUR body works. And thats where our metabolism-first framework comes in. \nIt empowers you with a repeatable, customizable method to optimize your metabolism. Because weve found through working with millions of people that a fully optimized metabolism is what delivers the results everyone wants feeling their best, looking their best and performing their best, EVERY day. \nSo, instead of fighting against your body and getting inconsistent results with a one-size fits all program or protocol, we teach you to work with your body to enjoy consistent results by building your OWN perfect customized program. One thats practical, enjoyable and sustainable and starts working fast.\n\nBenefits\n\nWhat You'll Enjoy from Us: \n * A Curated Team - A very supportive team of other high-performers who like to get things done, hold themselves accountable and help each other out wherever possible.\n \n \n * A Nurturing Culture - A culture that supports and nurtures your need to learn, grow and challenge yourself to be the best you possibly can be.\n \n \n * A Fantastic Lifestyle A 100% remote experience that allows you to work from home with a lot of flexibility in choosing how you work with us.\n \n \nIf this sounds like a good fit, if youre excited to do something challenging and meaningful that preserves your ability to enjoy life to the fullest, then please apply ASAP as we cant wait to meet you!

Job Description

u a kick-ass FED tired of rushing through client work, instead yearning to dive deeper into a smaller number of projects? Do animations, interactions, and user experiences delight you? Are you disciplined enough to work in sprints, but also mature enough to work independently?\n\nUndefined LLC is hiring a full-time FED to work on customer-facing and internal websites and web applications. Say goodbye to the agency or freelance rat race - you’ll be working exclusively on a small number of company-led projects and initiatives.\n\nOur Projects\n\nSo what types of projects will you be working on?\n\n\n* A custom e-commerce site built in React and Next, powered on the back-end by Firebase and WordPress\n\n* A custom admin dashboard for a native app with more than 250,000 user accounts and 5,000 daily users, built in React and Next, and powered by Firebase\n\n* A shopify e-commerce site with a custom theme built on Shopify’s themekit and React\n\n* An app microsite built in React and Next, powered by Firebase\n\n* Various landing pages and microsites generally built in React and Next, powered by Firebase and/or WordPress as a CMS\n\n* Internal reporting and communication tools that may need some FED love\n\n\n\n\nThe Daily Grind\n\nWhat’s a typical day for a FED? We work in sprints; so, you’ll be in daily communication with your dev team members and leadership. But we also work like animals; so, you’ll be free to focus on getting your work done. Your week will begin with a Sprint Planning Meeting, you’ll have daily stand-ups during the week, and it will end on Friday with a Sprint Review.\n\nThough most of your time during the week will be working on tasks and bugs, you’ll have the opportunity to step up regularly (if that’s your thing) and be involved in higher-level design and direction decisions. We say “if that’s your thing” because some people love that, others don’t. And we want you focused mostly on what you love.\n\nBut What Am I Really Doing?\n\nSometimes, you’ll have an entire Sketch design and you’ll be building out the FED. Other times, you’ll have the basic design requirements (fonts, colors, etc) and some functionality requirements (credit card form, shipping address), and you’ll design and build the page or component in browser.\n\nYou’ll also handle FED for A/B tests like changing button colors or page layouts. Or we’ll need some animation on a page, like firing off confetti when a form is submitted. That’s your area too.\n\nHey - we just added some new functionality to how subscriptions are set up or we’re building out the functionality to export customer lists from our admin portal. You’ll FED those components, and also bug fix them should something break or not work as expected.\n\nOur Tech Stack\n\nYou must know React. We use React heavily in our front end development. You must also be great - not good, great - with CSS, SCSS, or some similar styling. We currently use SCSS modules in React, so you should be comfortable with SCSS even if you want to convince us that something better exists.\n\nYou must also have a great - not good, great - eye for CSS animations, timings, transitions...everything animated in the browser. If we (or you) get a crazy idea to animate a user interaction or drop in a little delighter, you’ll be the one to pull it off.\n\nExperience with Firebase, WordPress, and/or Shopify is a plus. And if you use After Effects or Lottie to blow peoples’ minds, we want to know (and see it).\n\nWhat You Need To Qualify\n\nThis is a full-time position or contract-to-hire position depending on your situation and needs. To qualify:\n\n\n* Must be a US citizen or resident alien\n\n* Proven work experience as a FED with React\n\n* Proficiency working in git and terminal\n\n* A portfolio and/or repo of actual work experience\n\n\n\n\nHow To Apply\n\nSend us your details - we need to see your work and resume or similar doc. We’ll reach out to qualified candidates via email to ask some questions or for a phone conversation.
